Noit

Absolutely baffling that this isn’t free. I watched RTGame play it on YouTube and can’t imagine how ripped off I’d feel if I paid cash money for it. I had 1 2 Switch with my switch at launch and was instantly bored by it, but at least it was actually a game.

Bring back Wii Sports.

Oh, I didn’t realise the switch supported monitors on generic docks at all. Yeah, I was still on handheld then.

I don’t think it’s a universal thing? I’ve got a USB-c dock and it handled Ethernet and power for my 2 totally fine, and I think it reported the keyboard although I didn’t test it.

Thank goodness, I’m a big fan of my classic Game Boy themed SN30 and was a bit annoyed to find it didn’t work at launch with the 2.

I think I’ll definitely be picking up an Ultimate 2 in a few months to replace my aging Switch Pro controller.

“Fans reject Such 2 game-key cards”, do they? Impressive that they’ve managed to do that before any have even been sold. I’m always rejecting stuff I can’t have yet.

I don’t believe we’ve had confirmation yet. They have said the Pro sticks will be smoother and less squeaky but didn’t name check Hall Effect.

Is Nintendo the only console producer whose consoles get used for mega LAN events? I was at a regional Pokemon event the other day where there were 500+ people playing Switch within a few tens of metres of each other. Aside from the fact that wireless gear could enable cheating, the wireless interference would be a real issue.

Can anyone name the game boy tune they’re using for the ad music? Sounds familiar.

They were pretty direct remakes with a few new bugs and a controversial art style. I was never a big DPP fan and the remakes failed to change my mind.

I do think any future remakes will be different though, i vaguely remember a story about ILCA who made BDSP and I don’t think they exist in the same form as they did when developing the game.

There’s a lot of potential options. Gen V remakes are next on the main series remake list. Let’s Go and Legends were both sort-of-mainline-ish games that would be about right for a sequel. I’m betting there’s still more DLC for SV. And wasn’t there a rumour about another Detective Pikachu movie?

How dare you “two YouTubers” unname then when one is Ashens, king of tat, lord of the brown sofa.

It’s on his second channel for those interested.

Hoplite maybe? It’s on mobile but is a lot of fun.

I’ve not finished it yet due to limited gaming time but it’s clearly not that long. It feels like it should have some replayability but I don’t think it’s very unreasonably priced. Probably not ideal if you’re looking to squeeze every hour of entertainment out of your dollar though.

Terra Nil is mentioned in the article but I must give it a recommendation, it’s very chill and restoring a wasteland or ruined city to a thriving ecosystem is a great counterpoint to building a bustling city.

Right, so I didn’t actually mind the original ENT theme at all during my rewatch earlier this year. Far worse was the outro credits which were deeply jarring every single time.

The revamped theme is appalling though, it’s doubling down on everything that put people off about the original and it’s far, far worse.

Play-money prediction market: will the exploration find Nessie?

I guess I’d caveat that I’ve never really enjoyed any of the TV adaptations, but they keep making them, so someone must be enjoying them!

The Long Earth series is brilliant, I really enjoyed it. It doesn’t feel very Pratchetty but it scratches an alternate universe sci fi itch in a very satisfying way.

Massive Pratchett fan here so I’m giving the new series of Good Omens a go, and I don’t know why I keep subjecting myself to TV Pratchett adaptations.

There’s the odd giggle, and I like the actors, but three episodes in it just goes nowhere, it’s just a series of skits with Aziraphale and Crowley.

They’re only one component of what made the book great, but I get the feeling that the production crew have gone “Tennant and Sheen are great, the show is now only about them”.

Was this game named by a Bojack Horseman character?

New Futurama is starting to appear on Disney+. Watched the first one last night, and it’s good. Got a few chuckles, re-set the scene, it’s not the absolute peak of the show but if it maintains this level of quality then I’ll not be upset about it being revived again.
